PROOFREADING

You will be working for a couple of days on "proofreading" work. Proofreading is checking your work thoroughly for mistakes. In the business world, you may be checking someone else's work for errors. There are very specific marks that are used to correct errors that are found. Go to this assignment and do the following:

1) Read through the fact sheets that are given. Print off fact sheet 2 and 4. Print them double sided onto one page (use word).
2) Complete as many worksheets as you can in the time allowed.
3) We will be completing a Quiz and handing it in by printing off just the "selected" results. You must answer all 10 questions. Take your time and "proofread" the material carefully.
